I had heard of this movie a long time ago. But I've never seen it before. Until two weeks ago, My friend came and asked me: “Are you interested in movies about theory or science?” I told him I really liked it and I also like action movies. So he recommended ‘Inception’ to me and he invited me to watch it together.
The plot of the movie is about stealing ideas through dreams. Dom Cobb, the man who founded the intelligence espionage team. He is the best at entering dreams and steal valuable secrets from the subconscious of the target who is asleep. One day Cobb and the team meets an influential Japanese businessman named Saito who will hire Cobb to go on some missions in exchange for his return to the country without guilt. But instead, he hires Cobb to steal some information inside his rival mind. The mission turned out to be the opposite. When he wanted Cobb and his team to implant an idea into the mind of the son of the owner of his rival company. But it seems the new mission isn't as easy as it seems. When everything doesn't go as planned. As a result, Cobb and his team face more and more dangers on each floor of their dreams.
While watching, I was surprised by the film production. Whether it's the actors, the plot, the setting, or the story. This movie is very interesting. It's a sci-fi action movie. Suitable for people who like movies with unexpected plots. Can't guess anything. This movie will keep our brains working for 2 and a half hours because it has many complicated theories. But it's full of interest with an unbeatable plot and the concept of Lucid dream, the most intricate. And I think that in that era, Inception was a very cutting edge movie. Because time probably won't be able to do anything about it. Even I came to see it after the movie had been shown for ten years. I'm still amazed by the plot, visuals and sounds, or scenes that I don't think ten years ago anyone would have thought of something like this. I don't know how Nolan's brain came up with something like this. The part that enhances the movie to fulfill the imagination of the viewer very well is probably the CG and the most spectacular cinematography. Each scene was created through Nolan’s detailed thought process. Such as the scenes of the dream collapsing, the folding city, or the dream from the first floor to the last floor all create excitement for me very well.
I think Inception is a pretty difficult movie to watch. Because it takes thinking about the whole thing. Think along the storylines and characters. You may have to watch it two or more times to understand and relate to the movie more. Although it may be difficult to understand at first. But I would recommend watching this movie. Lastly, for Nolan's films, I would definitely rank this one as my favorite of his. I really love this !
What Nolan has created with Inception is the rare movie that is bound to improve with repeated viewings, both as a means to drink in its brilliance one more time, and to see what sly clues might have flown under your radar the first time around.
The film is Nolan's labyrinth all the way, and it's gratifying to experience a summer movie with large visual ambitions and with nothing more or less on its mind than (as Shakespeare said) a dream that hath no bottom.
By convoluting the various planes of experience, by overlapping and obscuring ostensible realities and ostensible dreams, Mr. Nolan deprives us the opportunity of investing emotionally in any of it.
When I first watch this movie, I was just shocked with it's twist. I'm not gonna mention details, because can't share any spoilers.Simply this movie makes a complex story, that makes you question so many things. "Why he is keeping her in his dreams?" or whatever your question is answering with some well written line. That scene is the key to the whole movie. That line between Cobb and Mal answers all your questions at once.That's why I like this movie so much. Some movies has that potential. Making a complex story that someone could answer with only one sentence. You're waiting for that line for whole content. But most of the contents are not managing that well.
This last phase of Nolan's filmography (as opposed to the first) fails to excite me. I consider inception a barely watchable film, not bad but really without any particular merit.
This is probably the most overrated movie of all time. Christopher Nolan doesn't seem to know how to explain something without expository dialog, and it gets really boring once you hear the same thing for a dozen times. This is a movie that tries to be intelligent but doesn't want to lose the appeal to the masses, and tries to fix that by making sure that everyone understands exactly what is happening, and it made me feel as though I was in a kindergarten class. While it's a gorgeous film with incredible actors, the looks don't make up for the lack of script quality.
